Bitcoin breaks back above $100K: What are the key drivers?

Johann Kerbrat, Robinhood (HOOD) Crypto general manager and vice president, joins Brad Smith and Seana Smith on Morning Brief to discuss bitcoin (BTC-USD)’s recent climb back above $100,000. Kerbrat explores some of the big drivers behind the recent rally. "After the election that we've seen in November, a lot of people are a lot more excited to get into the space because there is this idea of regulatory clarity coming up," he explains. Despite bitcoin's recent rally, Kerbrat suggests that the cryptocurrency's future is still uncertain. "There is a lot of capacity for the price to move and for the assets to be used in a lot of different ways," Kerbrat says. "There is a lot more that we have to see in the next few months before we can really decide how far Bitcoin can go." In the video above, Kerbrat shares more insight on the future of cryptocurrency, explains the importance of new tools for investors, and shares which milestones to watch for as bitcoin's journey continues.

MicroStrategy history: Beyond the Ticker

MicroStrategy (MSTR) and its chairman, Michael Saylor, are practically synonymous with bitcoin (BTC-USD) these days, but the business intelligence company has been around since 1989. Beyond the Ticker takes a deep dive into the company’s biggest moments. 1989 Back then, it was all about data analytics, and Saylor – fresh out of MIT – was a rising tech star. 1998 With the dot-com boom well underway, MicroStrategy went public under the familiar MSTR ticker at $12 per share. It rocketed to $333 as the dot-com boom peaked. Saylor became a paper billionaire practically overnight and wasn’t afraid to spend his wealth on legendary parties and a yacht, capturing the flashy spirit of the era. 2000 But when the dot-com bubble burst, MicroStrategy’s stock plummeted to just 42 cents, a stunning 99.9% drop. The company had to restate its financials, and the SEC slapped the company with fines. Still, Saylor held on, shifting MicroStrategy’s focus back to enterprise software and slowly dug the company out of its hole. 2010 MicroStrategy was moving into mobile analytics, and Saylor wrote a prescient book about the coming smartphone revolution called, “The Mobile Wave.” 2014 Facing stiff competition, MicroStrategy laid off more than 700 workers, and Saylor cut his own salary to just one dollar. 2020 The pandemic, however, would bring new opportunities. Saylor pivoted MicroStrategy again – this time into bitcoin – arguing that it was a better store of value than cash. 2024 He poured billions of corporate dollars into it. And today, MicroStrategy holds around 439,000 bitcoin with an average purchase price just over $60,000. With bitcoin trading around $100,000 per coin, MicroStrategy’s crypto stash is worth $44 billion. Investors, however, are placing a significant premium on the company, pushing its market capitalization to $89 billion – enough to secure its admission to the Nasdaq 100 (^NDX) on December 23, replacing Super Micro Computer (SMCI.NE). From tech giants to retail titans, Beyond the Ticker is a historical series that takes a deep dive into some of Wall Street's trending companies and how they transformed into the financial icons they are today.

Why the momentum driving bitcoin adoption is just getting started

While bitcoin (BTC-USD) has hovered around $96,000 in the first several days of 2025 — a pullback from $107,000 in the final weeks of 2024 — BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF (IBIT) saw $333 million in outflows on Thursday. "Crypto tends to move in these kind of momentum cycles. And so we have to be patient during the quiet times, we have to get excited. So for most investors, you have to think really long term," CoinDesk Indices Managing Director Andy Baehr states, pointing to the Federal Reserve's September and November meetings and the US election as events that pushed bitcoin higher in "clumps." Baehr sits down in-studio with Morning Brief hosts Brad Smith and Madison Mills to talk more about crypto adoption, the outlook on US regulatory frameworks, and the general view on bitcoin ETFs moving ahead in 2025. "The adoption momentum, when you think ahead, is just getting off to a start. And the dialogue change between this time last year and today has been huge. So you can't really look at bitcoin and think of it as something that has a valuation cycle, like a 500-year-old asset. It's still brand new," Baehr tells Yahoo Finance. "Adoption momentum for bitcoin is going to do two things: it's going to continue to support a medium to long term price, and it'll also over time, we believe, help to dampen volatility."

Why do people own bitcoin? An expert explains.

IDX Advisors Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer Ben McMillan appears on Market Domination to explore why people own bitcoin (BTC-USD). Bitcoin's price currently hovers above $97,000 in the first trading day of 2025. McMillan highlights the cryptocurrency's evolution from a digital store of value, a potential inflation hedger, and a speculative investment tied to emerging technologies like AI. McMillan shifts to crypto diversification, advising clients to focus on other cryptos like ethereum (ETH-USD) or solana (SOL-USD) in order to have better access to liquidity. "This is where a lot of the innovation is happening and this is where you're seeing a lot of the real world use cases play out," he continues.
